I note that I said over 6 months ago I thought Brexit wouldn’t happen. 60% I think. Now I reckon there is an 80% chance it won’t happen.
Boris will be forced to quit. No General election. Parliament won’t vote for it. Turkeys and Christmas and all that. Ken Clarke or Harriet Harman to form an emergency govt.
I believe that the British political landscape has changed. The remainers now appear in the majority.
Truly remarkable times. One thing I think is certain. People will be reading about today in the history books in 300 years time.
Corbyn calls a vote of no confidence. He states that he will ask the EU to suspend Brexit until after a UK election if he is caretaker Prime Minister. On Thursday he wins said vote and on Monday of next week goes to Brussels, makes the request as required and it is granted. On Tuesday he calls for a vote under the Fixed Term Parliament Act and Parliament is lawfully prorogued in order for a General Election to be held on the last Thursday in October.
